Installing the Math Co-processor

If your Macintosh, or the Radius card, already has a math co-proces-
sor, do not install the Asanté math co-processor option. It will cause
the Macintosh to fail at start up.

The following sections, starting on the next page, describe how to
install a MacCon card in a Macintosh IIsi and a Macintosh SE/30.
Instructions for installing a MacCon card together with a video card
are also included.

Note

: In some cases with thick Ethernet (10Base5) cabling,

you may need to set the JP1 jumper ON (as shown below) to
force the daughter card to select the AUI port. This may be
necessary when your network does not have a 10Base5-com-
pliant Ethernet transceiver.
